Safety pharmacology studies that evaluate drug candidates for potential cardiovascular liabilities remain a critical component of drug development. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have recently emerged as a new and promising tool for preclinical hazard identification and risk assessment of drugs. Recently, Pluriomics organized its first User Meeting entitled 'Combining Pluricyte (R) Cardiomyocytes & MEA for Safety Pharmacology applications', consisting of scientific sessions and live demonstrations, which provided the opportunity to discuss the application of hiPSC-CMs (Pluricyte (R) Cardiomyocytes) in cardiac safety assessment to support early decision making in safety pharmacology. This report summarizes the outline and outcome of this Pluriomics User Meeting, which took place on November 24-25, 2016 in Leiden (The Netherlands). To reflect the content of the communications presented at this meeting we have cited key scientific articles and reviews.
